The wonderful colours of Kruger. A male lion scent marks his territory by rubbing his head through the branches of a bush.

We were lucky enough to see this beautiful Leopard on the way to Skukuza airport after spending a fabulous month in Kruger National Park

Thanks Christoph.. I have blocked them all
This is one of my issues with @bsky.app .. all images have save and share option which is wrong. I think should be removed. All photos if shared should be credited.

Wet but full of song

A Robin singing his heart out even though he was very wet from a recent downpour.

As its barely, still, only just Autumn, my first post is this tree catching the last rays of the day in one of my favourite areas of woodland near Hexham in Northumberland.

I agree Simon. I don't agree with the share and save options. It makes it too easy for those that do not respect copyright.

Question for fellow photographers on #BlueSky

How do you feel about the share / download option of images ( your copyright work) on here. I have noticed a lot share without credit (not repost) for their benefit

Open wide...

A Hippo bull shows dominance by opening his jaws as wide as he can showing his teeth in Kruger.
